New Vekoma Flyer in China 2008

^ There's probably a set of trim brakes at the top of the half loop. Anyway, I'm glad to see this actually built. I just hope that this concept won't only end up with only one coaster like the Tilt Coaster did. -

Coyote Canyon Theme Park

This will never make it off the drawing board. How many proposals like this actually turn out anyway? This is just another over ambitious businessman. -
So a few weeks ago Jana and I went to SFGAm on the last weekend of the season. It was pretty empty for a Saturday but we bought a flash pass anyway. Man, does that thing rock, though! We got almost twice the amount of rides we would've gotten without it. The only down side is that American Eagle and Viper weren't included in that and by the end of the day we never got around to riding them. Also Batman the Ride was closed which sucks because it is the best ride in the park. Btw, there was a reaaaally nice looking police car outside the entrance that Jana was obsessed with. Onto the pictures: YOU DO NOT KNOW how many attempts it took to get this photo right Buccaneers battle future spot (and some really ugly cars) Did I mention that it is a really photogenic coaster? The Whizzer is a really photogenic coaster Artsy shot No one has EVER taken this picture before Notice how this parking lot has cars in it, not coasters It was like a ten minute walk just to get to the entrance from the back parking lot ooh... pretty Being easily distracted, we decided to take some time marvelling at this nice green motorcycle we were parked next to On the drive up we came across a street with a familiar name Grrrrr... Im giant parrot thing. GIVE ME SOME CRACKERS! No thanks Too bad we broke it Mmmm.. Schwarzkopf goodness I have no idea why people call this forceless. Maybe its because i'm so small, but I was out of my seat for half the ride! I was gonna use another TPR in-joke here, but I decided not to. I'll end the report with another obligatory carousel shot. I found this projection on the side of the Dark Knight box pretty cool. Up from the Sky Trek Tower you can see Batman: The (not currently operating) Ride Ahhh... The Fiddler's Fling This innocent-looking ride is NOTHING like it looks. I swear I gave Jana so many bruises from crushing her from the extreme lateral g's!

Hi Guys, I've been reading this site for years but I didn't ever bother to sign up. I'll probably have a trip report up later tonight.
